We use less and less plastic in our daily lives. There are exorbitant fees for companies that use and produce plastic and consumers are also charged additional fees for opting for this type of material. Consumers are becoming more careful. Children's toys are increasingly made of wood. Cloth bags and bulk food are being sold, there's no more plastic. Cardboard, boxes, glass jars and cloth bags are used in everyday life. People also regularly clean their homes and remove all possible elements containing plastic. Fast fashion is no longer fashionable. Nowadays, fast fashion stores have higher prices and people are starting to value cotton and linen more, both for clothes and home textiles. Some say that the air, including the air we breathe indoors, has improved, as even furniture is now made from 100% wood or close to it and there is less and less plastic in its production. The future is bright.
